I think there are only 3 reasons for this.

1. To compete in the bodybuilding world

2. To get BIG FAST!

3. For attention from the opposite/same sex.


I might do steroids one day, havent decided, but I will take some guys advice here and wait a couple years. If I ever did them it would be for cosmetic/strength purposes!

Nobody messes with a dude on roids... seriously...

on yea a side Q, is there a diff between Pro-steroids and anabolic steroids?

I dont use roids as I do want to start a family one day. Secondly, I'm a pretty big guy before a even lifted (thanks pops for the genes) and I'm into weights for the health benefits.

I have nothing against those who do roids. The little short skinny guys have no choice but to do them if they want size.

I suppose given the options, I just want to get big and strong as fast as possible...

but I'd perfer other options.. like:

I want my nuts shirveled up, cause I'm tired of getting them squeezed between my legs when I walk.. and squeeshed against chairs when I sit down.

Have used AAS as I had achieved my max potential and plateaud. It was the next step forward for me to achieve more size and the physique I was after. I was at an age and stage of my life where this would have had no effect on anyone apart from myself (ie growing, pregnancy and childbirth all over).

And let us not forget the thrills that a enlarged clitoris brings.

I never tampered with alcohol, drugs, nicotine and obviously roids before my children. I wanted as pure and "clean" a body as possible for an important thing as pregnancy and I would never take any such risks if I wanted to have children. I am unaware as to the effects of roids on the reproductive system, female eggs, male sperm, risk of disability to the foetus etc.

that's a good question.. not sure how it effects eggs.. but generally guys bounce back to near normal after an aas cycle and can have healthy kids.. Occasionally even a Professional BB'r will take time off (year or 2) to have a healthy child.

And bump what Meera just said... When it comes right down to it, I'm not up to speed on the actual facts and dangers whether your man or woman when it comes to child birth. I would hate to **** something like that up.

hey meera,
how did you gauge that you had reached your "max potential"? How long did you seriously train before you met this plateau or your max potential?

I'm very muscular and do not think I am anywhere close to my max potential. I'm scared of what i could look like if I didn't pay attention.

How about the "Cause I wanted to" option??
Cause that is what it boiled down to with me. I am big and strong. I had reached my genetic potential years ago and am an age where I can do this and not have it efffect chances of kids and such...so I just wanted to do it. And I loved it.
